Adding contacts in Outlook (2002/2000)

I've received an email with a list of about 100 people in the TO box, i'd like to add all of these people to my contacts is there a quick way to do this rather than individually right clicking on them and choosing add to contacts.

Just to make things that little bit more complicated in the TO box it is showing their display names rather than their email addresses so i'll have problems copying the names out?

If OldDog reckons there's no easy way, there probably isn't.

But here's a quick and dirty way I've used before:

Open the mail, View > Options (this will display the header info)

Copy and paste into Word all the recipients listed after the To: which should give you something like:
"Recipient1" <rec1@company.com>, "Recipient2" <rec2@company.com>, "Recipient3" <rec3@company.com>
etc.

Search and replace all occurences of " with nothing. (a double quote mark)
Search and replace all occurences of > with nothing.
Search and replace all occurences of , with nothing. (a comma)
Search and replace all occurences of < with , (a comma)

Great thanks, it wasn't the quickest process in the world (especially as i'd been lied to and there were over five hundred addresses!!) but it worked like a charm. it's been duly noted and filed away thanks very much

Go for it!

Bob's your uncle is an expression I've know all my life - as I expect it will have to many - as a quick Google throws up several suggestions regarding its origin, including this from English Usage, indicating it is over 100 years old.
